Bob Dylan Music Video for 'Like a Rolling Stone' Released

Bob Dylan, one of the most prolific songwriters of a generation, has released an official music video for his iconic song, "Like a Rolling Stone."

The interactive video for the 48-year-old tune may be just as ground breaking, as it allows viewers to scroll through a number of celebrities as they lip-sync the lyrics. Sixteen different "channels" show actors and television hosts "singing" the song.

The debut of the video, which is also available on BobDylan.com, works in concert with release of Dylan's 47-CD box set, The Complete Album Collection Volume 1. Yes, that's just Volume 1, and contains all 35 official albums – the 35th of which came out in 2012 – as well as six live albums and two CDs of rare material.

"Like a Rolling Stone" originally came out in 1965 – when Dylan was 24 years old – and was named the Greatest Song of All Time by Rolling Stone.

The video took about two months to coordinate, and contains an hour of fifteen minutes of footage, Heymann told Rolling Stone.

"It's like a feature film inside a five-minute music video," he said.

Interlude CEO Yoni Bloch told the magazine that the video already generated nearly one million unique viewers on Day 1, with more than 90 percent actively surfing. "And I can't say who, but our inboxes are flooded with big networks asking if they can add their shows to the mix. It's like we're building a format."
